DECORATIVE PAINTING

February - April 2018

In spring of 2018 I took an elective course in decorative painting. During the course, I completed replicated two historical decorative paintings and made one with free expression. I used linseed oil and pigments to mix the paint, similarly to traditional methods. The course taught me many techniques used in traditional decorative painting, that is useful for future restoration work of painted interiors and objects.
